2018: My Year in Museums and Galleries
In 2018, I was fortunate to travel cross country a few times. Here's what I saw along the way. My goal hadn't changed since 2017. I wanted to see as many Van Gogh paintings as possible.
In three weeks I managed to see (with thanks to my Mom, my husband, my travels in teaching and my friends who helped me out):
41 paintings by Vincent Van Gogh.
One sketch.
10 museums.
8 states (not including the states it took to drive through to get there.)
6,710 plus miles.
3 paintings in 2018 prior to this trip.
900 paintings total.
1,100 sketches and drawings.
903 letters.
